Cover seeds with 6mm (1/5 in) compost. Germination takes 7-14 days.Transplant seedlings singly into 7.5cm (3in) pots.

Feed regularly with tomato food. -
This fast acting fertiliser provides a booster feed of potassium, increasing strength and vigour in plants and improving resistance to weather and disease.It also promotes the development and colour of blooms and improves fruit yields.

When dry, it should be watered in for maximum benefits. -
This is the first blight resistant beefsteak variety specifically developed for growing outdoors. The glossy, pinky-red fruits are perfect for slicing into burgers, salads and sandwiches for a delicious taste of summer.Sow seeds on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed compost and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place seed trays in a propagator around 15-20?C (59-68?F) until after germination which takes 7-14 days.When seedlings gain 2 true leaves, transplant into individual 7.5cm (3in) pots of compost and grow on at 15°C (59°F). When growing in a greenhouse, transplant at the end of May or when the first flowers develop. Allow 3 plants per growbag, or one per 25cm (10in) pot, or plant directly into the greenhouse soil.When growing outdoors gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions over 7 - 10 days before planting out from early June when tomato plants are 20cm (8in) tall. Transplant at a distance of 60cm (24in) apart in a sheltered full sun position. Use canes to support the plants as they grow. Water frequently and feed regularly. -
"Indeterminate habit requires support and sideshooting.Tomato Country Taste produces meaty, delicious fruits, which can easily attain weights over 227g (½lb) if trusses are trimmed (trim to allow 3 or 4 fruits to ripen per truss).

Place containers in a propagator, or seal in a polythene bag, at a temperature of 18-21C (65-70F) until after germination, which takes 7-10 days.Transplant seedlings, when large enough to handle, into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Plant in the greenhouse in individual large pots, or 3 plants per growbag when 2cm (8in) high. Can be planted outdoors, 45cm (18in) apart once all frost risk has passed.Plants require sideshooting and support for the best yields. Water and feed plants regularly with a high potash feed once the first truss has set. -
